    If you have had Shorts Stachebender then you'll want a clone recipe too. Any ideas on what it would look like?

    I'd think lots of pale malt, Amarillo and citra hops, and grapefruit zest added before bottling.

    did you try contacting shorts? If I were you, throw together you best guess recipe and send it to them. Hopefully they'll have some tips for you to improve the recipe.

    Hopstache used Citra, Amarillo, and Simcoe. I make an IPA somewhat similar in hop profile but without grapefruit.

    If you put a rough recipe together and email them, they may help you out. I know a buddy that got a LOT of info regarding their Key Lime Pie.... they just wouldn't provide the exact ratio of fruit and other adjuncts.

    I didn't care for it. It was too bitter for my tastes.
